              Dont know. Bet on this - Marist will have at LEAST 8 placers. Most of them underclassmen.

                So, your post has nothing to do with the thread, right? Just a shameless plug for Marist wrestling? Why not start your own thread about Marist?

                BTW, I will take the under on 8 placers for $1,000!

                  Also how about Marist makes it out of regionals for the first time in a bazillion years, then tell us how great they are.....

                    I wouldn't bet against it, they can easily get 8 placers with who they are returning....

                      Marist won their regional 2 years ago. Lost to Minooka in the dual.

                          That would be quite a feat. Including Pruitt in the mix, step 1 will be getting all of those guys you mentioned into the lineup. Step 2 will be getting them all through the season healthy. Steps 3 and 4 will be getting them all through regionals and sectionals. Step 5 will be placing 8 kids at the toughest tourney in Illinois , the IHSA 3A State Tournament, which will be littered with studs and unlucky draws as always. I don't see anyone "easily" taking 8 kids through those steps.

                          I respect the achivements of their returning placers, but getting back on the podium is no given for any of them. With the high end talent of thier lineup being bunched in the lower and upper weights I would not be shocked if some of those mentioned were either squeezed out of the lineup or forced to wrestle somewhere other than their most competitive weight.

                          I'm not a gambling man and with the talent Marist has I wouldn't be surprised if they had 8 placers, but if forced to place a wager either way I would bet against it.

                          Marist and Sandburg will undoubtedly be the top 2 teams next year but 8 placers for either would be a lot to ask.

                          In Tiger Woods' prime he was the favorite going into every tournament but taking Tiger over the field for even money would not have been a wise bet. I'd take the field over the Marist 8 at even money.

                            They will also go undefeated and if Sandburg is in their regional Marist will win it by 50pts and if they arent in the same regional, Marist will beat them in the state finals by 25+. Marist people sure talk a lot for a team that hasn't won a state title since 1987, brought home a trophy since 1997 and havn't even won a sectional since 1997 and I cant even think of the last time they had an individual champion. Two years ago they were being hyped as a team who could win it all and lost in the sectional, last year they were being hyped as a team who could win it all and didn't make it out of the regional. Why dont you just let the kids wrestle and see what happens instead of making such outlandish predictions so you dont have people thinking its a dissapointing season if they only come away with 4 or 5 placers

                              They'll make it out, no doubt, and they were the best dual team in the state last year also.
